The Gentoo Linux Bluetooth Guide says to emerge net-wireless/bluez-libs
and net-wireless/bluez-utils, but what is net-wireless/bluez?  If bluez
is installed there's blocking.

bluez and bluez-utils have the same description "Bluetooth Tools and
System Daemons for Linux."

What is the difference and when would one be used in place of the other two?

Thanks,

dhk

From version 4, libs and utils were combined in the one package. Only use
the libs and utils packages if you want the old version.

According to the last person who posted on this list on this subject,  
that guide is obsolete & incorrect.
